The results of this review that impact the LRA are discussed below. A. Nonsafety-related flexible hoses in the reactor recirculation system (B31) were replaced. The material was previously stainless steel. The new material is nickel alloy. Nonsafety-related components in the B31 system were reviewed in LRA Table 3.1.2-4-2. There are existing line items in LRA Table 3.1.2-4-2 for stainless steel flex connections and these are retained since not all of the nonsafety-related flexible hoses in the reactor recirculation system were replaced. LRA Table 3.1.2-4-2 is revised to add line items for the new nickel alloy flex connections. In addition, LRA Section 3.1.2.1.4 is revised to add nickel alloy to the list of materials and LRA Table 3.3.1 (Item 3.3.1-95) is revised to include nickel alloy in the description of materials. B. Strainers and strainer housings in the emergency equipment cooling water system (P44) were replaced. The strainer and strainer housing materials were previously copper alloy and carbon steel, respectively. The new strainer and strainer housing material is stainless steel. Although these components were part of the emergency equipment cooling water system, they were reviewed under the compressed air system in LRA Table 3.3.2-6. There are existing line items in LRA Table 3.3.2-6 for stainless steel strainer housings, so no new line items were needed for the housings. LRA Table 3.3.2-6 is revised to change line items for copper alloy strainers to stainless steel and to delete line items for carbon steel strainer housings. C. Tubing in the emergency diesel generator system (R30) was replaced. The tubing material was previously copper alloy. The new material is stainless steel. The emergency diesel generator system is reviewed in LRA Table 3.3.2-10. There are existing line items in LRA Table 3.3.2-10 for copper alloy and these are retained since not all of the tubing was replaced. LRA Table 3.3.2-10 does contain existing line items for stainless steel tubing, but not for the internal environment of this new tubing. LRA Table 3.3.2-10 is revised to add a line item for stainless steel tubing in a treated water environment (not greater than 140°F). D. Tubing in the fuel oil lines of the emergency diesel generator system (R30) was replaced. The tubing material was previously carbon steel. The new material is stainless steel. The fuel oil portion of the emergency diesel generator system is reviewed in LRA Table 3.3.2-15. There are existing line items in LRA Table 3.3.2-15 for stainless steel tubing, so no new line items were needed for the new material. However, there are no existing line items for carbon steel tubing (it previously was covered by line items for "piping"). Since not all of the carbon steel tubing was replaced and to ensure consistency throughout the LRA with respect to the use of "piping" vs. "tubing", LRA Table 3.3.2-15 is revised to add line items for carbon steel tubing. to NRC-15-0068 Page 2 E. Nonsafety-related valves in the heater drains system (N22) were modified to add nickel alloy (Inconel) cladding to the internal surfaces. The valves were previously carbon steel with no internal cladding. The nonsafety-related components in the N22 system were reviewed in LRA Table 3.4.2-3-4. There are existing line items in LRA Table 3.4.2-3-4 for carbon steel valve bodies. LRA Table 3.4.2-3-4 is revised to add line item for the new carbon steel valve bodies with nickel alloy internal cladding. F. The nonsafety-related steam jet air ejectors (SJAEs) in the condenser and auxiliaries system (N61) were modified. The SJAEs were previously identified in the LRA as stainless steel ejectors. Review of the modification identified that the stainless steel components are internal to the ejector and that the material that performs the (a)(2) pressure boundary function is carbon steel. The nonsafety-related components in the N61 system were reviewed in LRA Table 3.4.2-3-6. The existing line items in LRA Table 3.4.2-3-6 for stainless steel SJAEs are deleted. LRA Table 3.4.2-3-6 is revised to add line items for the carbon steel SJAEs. In addition, a line item for an internal environment of steam was added since the SJAEs may be exposed to both steam and treated water. G. Relief valves in the lube oil filters in the emergency diesel generator system (R30) were identified for replacement. The valve body material will be changed from carbon steel to aluminum but the change has not yet been implemented. However, from the review it was determined that the carbon steel material is exposed to both an internal and external lube oil environment. There is an existing line item in LRA Table 3.3.2-10 for carbon steel valve bodies with an internal lube oil environment. LRA Table 3.3.2-10 is revised to add a line item for carbon steel valve bodies with an external lube oil environment. H. Metal fatigue calculations were revised and an environmentally assisted fatigue (EAF) screening was performed. LRA Sections 4.3, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, and A.2.2 are revised to show the results of the fatigue calculations and reflect the EAF screening. More detailed calculations were performed for the locations where the projected cumulative usage factor did not meet acceptance criteria at the time of the LRA submittal, and the revised calculations show the criteria is met, excluding the impact of EAF. The EAF screening has identified some locations where additional action will be needed, e.g. more detailed analysis or stress based monitoring. LRA Sections 4.3 and A.2.2.3 are revised to indicate that the Fatigue Monitoring Program (LRA Section B.1.17) includes stress-based or cycle-based fatigue monitoring. Although the EAF screening has been performed, the commitment to develop EAF usage calculations (LRA Table A.4, Item 12.b) remains, since additional action is needed based on the EAF screening results. I. Procedures associated with the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program were revised to use the 2015 revision of BWRVIP-190 (EPRI Report 3002002623) rather than 2008 revision (EPRI Report 1016579). The Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program descriptions in LRA Sections A.1.43 and B.1.43 are revised to update the EPRI report number. NUREG-1801 Section XI.M2 also references the 2008 revision (EPRI Report to NRC-15-0068 Page 3 1016579) in the program description. The use of the 2015 revision of BWRVIP-190 can be considered an exception to NUREG-1801. LRA Section B.1.43 is revised to include discussion of this exception to NUREG-1801. LRA Table B-3 is also revised to indicate that the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program has an exception. In addition, the tables in LRA Section 3.0 include a "Notes" column. Generic notes A and B are identical except that note A is used for programs that are consistent with NUREG-1801 and note B is used for programs that have exceptions to NUREG-1801. The same is true for generic notes C and D. Due to the new exception discussed above, any line item in a table in LRA Section 3.0 that references the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program and uses note A is revised to use note B. Similarly, LRA Section 3.0 table line items that reference the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program and use note C are revised to use note D. Since this change affects multiple line items in multiples tables in LRA Section 3.0 and the change is administrative in nature, actual markups to the existing LRA tables are not provided in this letter. Administrative Changes In addition to the CLB changes, DTE has also identified some other non-material changes to the LRA. These changes are administrative changes to ensure consistency between the LRA and previously submitted RAI responses. These additional items that impact the LRA are discussed below. J. In Enclosure 2 to DTE letter NRC-15-0030, dated March 19, 2015, DTE revised LRA Table 3.2.2-8-1 to add a line item for piping. The line item credits the Buried and Underground Piping aging management program. For consistency with that change, LRA Section 3.2.2.1.8 is revised to add Buried and Underground Piping to the list of aging management programs for the miscellaneous ESF systems in scope for 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2). K. In the response to RAIs B.l.19-2a and B.1.19-8a in DTE letter NRC-15-0031, dated April 10, 2015, DTE added item "q" and modified item "p" in the Fire Water System Program in LRA Table A.4. However, the new item should have been labeled "r" and the item being modified should have been labeled "q". LRA Table A.4 is revised to clarify the item sequence. No changes to the text are being made, only to the sequence letters. L. In the response to RAI B.1.17-2 in DTE letter NRC-15-0005, dated January 20, 2015, DTE added enhancements to the Fatigue Monitoring Program in LRA Section B.1.17. In that letter, the two new enhancements were shown as applicable to program elements 1 through 7. However, the first new enhancement was only applicable to program elements 1 through 6 and the second new enhancement was only applicable to program element 7 (i.e. the enhancements should have been separated by a table line). LRA Section B.1.17 is revised to clarify which program elements apply to the enhancements. No changes to the text are being made, only to the format of the table. to NRC-15-0068 Page 4 M. As discussed previously, the tables in LRA Section 3.0 include a "Notes" column and generic notes A and B are identical except that note A is used for programs that are consistent with NUREG-1801 and note B is used for programs that have exceptions to NUREG-1801. The same is true for generic notes C and D. In previous DTE letters, exceptions to NUREG-1801 were added or deleted from certain aging management programs. The line items in LRA Section 3.0 tables that reference these aging management programs and use a generic note A, B, C, or D are revised to use the appropriate note as indicated in the list below. Since these changes affect multiple line items in multiples tables in LRA Section 3.0 and the changes are administrative in nature, actual markups to the existing LRA tables are not provided in this letter. " DTE letter NRC-15-0056 dated May 19, 2015 revised the BWR Feedwater Nozzle Program (LRA Section B.1.6) to add an exception to NUREG-1801. For Section 3.0 table line items that reference this program, all use of generic note A associated with this program is revised to note B and all use of generic note C is revised to note D. DTE letter NRC-15-0001 dated January 5, 2015 revised the BWR Stress Corrosion Cracking Program (LRA Section B.1.8) to add an exception to NUREG-1801. For Section 3.0 table line items that reference this program, all use of generic note A associated with this program is revised to note B and all use of generic note C is revised to note D. " DTE letter NRC-14-0051 dated July 30, 2014 revised the Fire Water System Program (LRA Section B.1.19) to add exceptions to NUREG-1801. For Section 3.0 table line items that reference this program, all use of generic note A associated with this program is revised to note B and all use of generic note C is revised to note D. DTE letter NRC-15-0001 dated January 5, 2015 revised the Reactor Vessel Surveillance Program (LRA Section B.1.38) to delete the exception to NUREG-1801. For Section 3.0 table line items that reference this program, all use of generic note B associated with this program is revised to note A and all use of generic note D is revised to note C. " DTE letter NRC-15-0030 dated March 19, 2015 revised the Water Chemistry Control - Closed Treated Water Systems Program (LRA Section B.1.44) to add an exception to NUREG-1801. For Section 3.0 table line items that reference this program, all use of generic note A associated with this program is revised to note B and all use of generic note C is revised to note D. N. LRA Section A.3 is a list of references for Appendix A of the LRA. In the original LRA submittal, the first reference (A.3-1) was a placeholder for the LRA submittal. LRA Section A.3 is revised to replace the placeholder reference for the LRA submittal with the actual reference. to NRC-15-0068 Page 5 LRA Revisions The LRA revisions associated with the changes discussed above (both the CLB-related and administrative changes) are shown on the following pages. Additions are shown in underline and deletions are shown in strike-through. Note that previous changes made to these same LRA sections made in previous letters are not shown in underline or strike-through such that only the new changes due to the items below are shown as revisions. Since a single change may result in an impact to multiple locations in the LRA, the LRA revisions are labeled with a letter in the right margin that cross-references the change to the list above. The LRA revisions are provided in the order that they would appear in the LRA. to NRC-15-0068 Page 6 3.1.2.1.4 Miscellaneous RCS Systems in Scope for 10 CFR 54.4(a)(2) Materials Nonsafety-related components affecting safety-related systems are constructed of the following materials.

Class 1 fatigue evaluations are contained in analyses and stress reports, and because they are based on a number of transient cycles assumed for a 40-year operating term, these evaluations are considered TLAA. Based on the numbers of cycles accrued to date, the numbers of cycles at the end of 60 years of operation were projected as shown in Table 4.3-1. The projections are linear projections based of the rate of the occurrence from January 1, 2000, through December 31, 2012, except where identified by footnotes. Fermi 2 recently reviewed the transient cycles that require counting and updated the cycle counts. These reviews provide the basis for the transient cycles that are listed in Table 4.3-1. The Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section B.1.17) tracks these transient cycles to manage the effects of fatigue for Class 1 components. The review included evaluation of transient cycle assumptions for locations that had been exempt from fatigue. The review identified one location locations that were previously exempt from fatigue evaluation meet the fatigue exemption criteria considering 60 years of operation. The Fatigue Monitoring Program tracks transient cycles and requires corrective actions if the numbers of cycles approach analyzed values. The Fatigue Monitoring Program ensures that the numbers of transient cycles experienced by the plant remain within the allowable numbers of cycles. It provides for use of cycle-based fatigue or stress-based fatigue monitoring methods if a component's cumulative usage factor based on cycle counting is projected to exceed 1.0 H after the environmentally assisted fatigue (EAF) calculations are complete. Appendix B, Section B.1.17, provides further details on the Fatigue Monitoring Program. to NRC-15-0068 Page 16 4.3.1.1 Reactor Pressure Vessel As described in UFSAR Section 5.4.6.3.1 and shown in UFSAR Figure 5.4-1, the RPV is a vertical, cylindrical pressure vessel with hemispherical heads of welded construction. The vessel design data are listed in UFSAR Table 5.4-1. The RPV thermal cycles are listed in Table 4.3-1. The RPV is designed, fabricated, tested, inspected, and stamped in accordance with the ASME B&PV Code Section III, 1968, Class 1, up to and including summer 1969 Addenda. Sections 4.3.1.2 and 4.3.1.3 provide additional details on the review of feedwater nozzle and underclad cracking. Table 4.3-2 lists the CUFs for the reactor vessel.Ref. 4-161. I H Fermi 2 will monitor transient cycles using the Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section B.1.17) and assure that action is taken if any of the actual cycles approach their analyzed numbers. As such, the Fatigue Monitoring Program will manage the effects of aging due to fatigue on the reactor pressure vessel in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21(c)(1)(iii). to NRC-15-0068 Page 17 Table 4.3-2 Reactor Pressure Vessel Cumulative Usage Factors General Location Location/Node CUF Nozzle-vessel 0.683 CRD return nozzle intersection Cap Bounded by the nozzle Nozzle-vessel 0.258 intersection Recirculation outlet nozzles Safe end 0.103 Nozzle 0.116 Nozzle-vessel 0.054 intersection Recirculation inlet Safe end 0.002 nozzles Liner, Cut 2, inside 0.220 surface Core AP nozzle Cut II, outside surface 0.637 CRD nozzles Cut 6 0.645 Basin seal skirt 0.162 Shroud support Cut 3a 0.111 4" Vent nozzle bolts 0.318 6" Instrument/head 0.382 spray nozzle bolts CRD assembly Main flange 0.146 H to NRC-15-0068 Page 18 4.3.1.4 Reactor Pressure Vessel Internals As described in UFSAR Section 4.1.2, the major Fermi 2 reactor internal components are the core (fuel, channels, control rods, and instrumentation), the core support structure (including the core shroud, shroud head separators, top guide, and core support plate), the steam dryer assembly, and the jet pumps.

As identified in Note z of UFSAR Table 3.2-1 and UFSAR Table 3.2-4 Note j, the reactor recirculation pumps were upgraded to the 4th generation design, and the modified components were designed and manufactured to ASME III, 1989. Representative analyses of recirculation pumps are summarized in UFSAR Table 3.9-20. The transients that require tracking are included in Table 4.3-1. Table 4.3-4 provides the CUFs for the reactor recirculation pumps Ref. 4-16l H 4.3.1.6 Class 1 Piping Detailed fatigue analyses were generated to analyze multiple locations on each system within the Class 1 boundary.

The ASME design fatigue curves were based on laboratory tests in air at low temperatures. Although the fatigue curves derived from laboratory tests were adjusted to account for effects such as data scatter, size, and surface finish, these adjustments may not be sufficient to account for actual reactor water operating environments. As reported in SECY-95-245, the NRC believes that no immediate staff or licensee action is necessary to deal with the environmentally assisted fatigue issue. In addition, the staff concluded that it could not justify requiring a backfit of the environmental fatigue data to operating plants. However, the NRC concluded that environmentally assisted fatigue should be evaluated for any proposed extended period of operation for license renewal because metal fatigue effects increase with service life. NUREG/CR-6260 addresses the application of environmental correction factors to fatigue analyses (CUFs) and identifies locations of interest for consideration of environmental effects (Ref. 4-13). NUREG/CR-6260 identified the following component locations to be the most sensitive to environmental effects for General Electric plants. (1) Reactor vessel shell and lower head (2) Reactor vessel feedwater nozzle (3) Reactor recirculation piping (including inlet and outlet nozzles) (4) Core spray line reactor vessel nozzles and associated Class 1 piping (5) Residual heat removal nozzles and associated Class 1 piping (6) Feedwater line Class 1 piping guidance (formulas) providod in NUREG/CR 6909 (Ref. 1 15) to calculate environmontally assisted fatigue correction factors (F)E for nickl alloy components but specifies that NUREG/CR 6583 (Ref. I 11) may be uscd for carbon and low alloy sto!, and NUREG/CR 5704 (Ref. A 12) may be us ed for astcnitic stainless stool Environmentally assisted fatigue (EAF) screening was performed (Ref. 4-17) for these H NUREG/CR-6260 locations and the remaining ASME Class 1 reactor pressure vessel and piping locations for which fatigue had been assessed that are (1) wetted (in contact with liquid reactor coolant) and (2) form part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary. All wetted reactor coolant pressure boundary locations with CUF calculations were addressed, so determination of thermal zones was not required. The components with the highest calculated CUF in each svstem were evaluated for the effects of EAF. to NRC-15-0068 Page 23 The evaluation of environmentally assisted fatigue included an evaluation of the water chemistry history to determine the cumulative environment for the components when determining the dissolved oxygen (DO) Values were determined for six zones in the primary system, using data from the three chemistry regimes used historically (Normal Water Chemistry, Hydrogen Water Chemistry, and On-line Noble Metal Chemistry). Using the availability data, there was the equivalent of over 12 fuli years of hydrogen water chemistry (HWC) from 1997 to the end of 2012. A 95 percent availability in 2013 through March 2015 would resuit in over 30 moro years of HWC.This corconlng analysis will therofore use 12 yoars as a best cotimate of thc tim~e for HWC (42 yars with HWC and 18 [60 42] years without HWC). implementation of HWC, the oxygen consentrations in the vessel and attached piping (othcr tha nf foodater) aro loss than 5 ppb. A representative v:alue for feedwater following HC i 35 ppb. The screening evaluation used guidance in NUREG/CR-6909 (Ref. 4-15) as allowed by NUREG-1801, Revision 2. The fatigue curves in NUREG/CR-6909 were applied for all materials, The methodology discussed in EPRI 1024995, "Environmentally Assisted Fatique Screening: Process and Technical Basis for Identifying EAF Limiting Locations" was used as guidance to determine which locations are bounding. These locations are referred to as Sentinel locations. The Sentinel locations are monitored to manage the effects of aging including EAF in the period of extended operation. The environmental correction factor (Fe,) calculation followed the formulas in NUREG/CR-6909. The historical dissolved oxygen chemistry input from the plant was used to account for the various chemistry zones and regimes that existed in the plant operating history and future projections when calculating the correction factor (Fe1) for 60 years. Fatigue calculations for 60 years used the projected cycles from Table 4.3-1. The results of the EAF screening calculation were used to determine the bounding components based on fatigue, including EAF effects. To summarize the approach taken in the EAF screening evaluation, the following steps were followed for each one of the components that have calculated CUFs: Pre-screening to establish the eligibility of the component for further EAF evaluation (e.g. wetted or not). Determine the bounding location in terms of fatigue for the component. Apply NUREG/CR-6909 fatigue curves. Obtain alternating stresses from design information.

Apply time weighted average Fen factor to increase the fatigue usage. Compare against EAF criterion of 1.0 and the Sentinel location screening threshold value of 0.8. Thc following equations were utilized in determining environmental fatigue correction factors. Carbon Stoe!

The environrmentely assisted fatigue correction factor (F ) for low alloy steel is calculated using NUREG/CR 6583, Eq. 6.5b. The environmentally assisted fatigue correction factor (F) for wrought and east The environrmentally assisted fatigue correction factor (F ) for Ni Cr Fe alleys is calculated using NUREG/CR 6909, Eq A.14. To recalculate F using NUREG 6909 requires the use of updated fatigue tables. This will be addressed by the cernritment identified in this section to complete a reanalysis prior to the period of extended operation. The screening calculations determined that some components have a calculated CUFen greater than 1.0. Where this occurred, the locations were re-evaluated with reduced Fen multipliers using average transient temperatures (based on NUREG/CR-6909 guidance) or average load pair temperatures where available. The results of the EAF screening are shown in Table 4.3-8. Sentinel locations are noted in Table 4.3-8. As shown in Table 4.3-8, this screening has determined that there are locations that, when accounting for environmental effects, have projected usage factors greater than 1.0. Additional action will be needed, e.g. more detailed analysis or stress-based or cycle-based fatigue monitoring, as part of the Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section B.1.17) for these locations.

4.6.5 Containment Penetrations As described in UFSAR Section 3.8.2.1.3.1, sleeved penetration assemblies with bellows consist of the process pipe, guard pipe, penetration sleeve bellows, and flued head. For Class 1 piping (Fermi 2 Group A), the design of the flued head meets ASME Section III Class 1 requirements, which specify a fatigue analysis that determines the cumulative usage factor for the flued head. UFSAR Figure 3.8-9 provides a cross-sectional drawing of the penetration assemblies and a listing of the penetrations that utilize this design (designated as Type 1). The usage factors are shown in Table 4.6-2 for these flued head penetrations (Ref. 4-16) based on l H the number of cycles shown in the analysis input value column in Table 4.3-1. to NRC-15-0068 Page 31 Table 4.6-2 Cumulative Usage Factors for Flued Head Penetrations Location/Node CUF Penetrations X-9A / B (Feedwater A, B) 0-464 0.471 H Penetration X-10 (RCIC steam supply) 0.046 Penetration X-12 (RHR supply) 0.416 Penetrations X-1 6A / B (Core spray A, B) 0.405 Penetrations X-7A-D (Main steam lines A 0.271 through D) Penetration X-8 (Main steam line drains) 0.094 Penetration X-11 (HPCI steam supply) 0.020 Penetrations X-13A / B (RHR return A, B) 0.371 Penetration X-43 (Reactor water clean up) 0.-267 0.144 H Penetration X-42 (Standby liquid control) 0.002 to NRC-15-0068 Page 32 4.7 OTHER PLANT-SPECIFIC TLAAS 4.7.2 Determination of High-Energy Line Break Locations UFSAR Sections 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 state that the method used to determine the intermediate locations of pipe breaks in high-energy lines includes an evaluation based on CUFs being less than 0.1 if other stress criteria are also met. Design criteria for piping between the primary containment and outboard isolation valves provide for maximum stresses considering all normal and upset conditions as calculated by the equations in Paragraph NB-3653 of ASME B&PV Code Section III. UFSAR Section 3.6.2.1.2.2 states that pipe breaks were not postulated in the high energy piping between the containment penetration and outboard isolation valves since the piping was conservatively designed and restrained. The calculated CUFs for containment penetration piping were also limited to values less than 0.1 if equation 10 of NB-3653 exceeds 2.4 Sm. The CUFs, as calculated in the design fatigue analyses, are based on the design transients assumed for the original 40-year life of the plant; therefore, the CUF analyses used in the selection of postulated high-energy line break locations are considered TLAAs. The Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section B.1.17) identifies when the transients affecting high-energy piping systems are approaching their analyzed numbers of cycles. The mod fiation of the Fcrmi 2 fatigue calculations to accounRt for the projebod cycles farF 60 years resultod in completd as ncessary. Re-analyses of the limiting locations where a break is not already assumed for 60 years of projected cycles resulted in CUFs meeting the 0.1 criterion for high-energy line break exclusion (Ref. 4-16). DTE Electric will manage the effects of aging associated with the fatigue analyses used in the selection of postulated high-energy line break locations using the Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section B.1.17) in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21(c)(1)(iii). to NRC-15-0068 Page 33

The representative sample includes low flow and stagnant areas. to NRC-15-0068 Page 35 A.2.2 Metal Fatigue A.2.2.1 Class 1 Metal Fatique Analyses Fatigue evaluations were performed in the design of the Fermi 2 Class 1 components. Class 1 fatigue evaluations are contained in analyses and stress reports, and because they are based on a number of transient cycles assumed for a 40-year operating term, these evaluations are considered time-limited aging analyses. The Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section A.1.17) tracks transient cycles and requires corrective actions if the numbers of cycles approach analyzed values. It provides for use of cycle-based fatigue or stress-based fatigue monitoring methods if a component's cumulative usage factor H based on cycle counting is projected to exceed 1.0 after the environmentally assisted fatique (EAF) calculations are complete. The Fatigue Monitoring Program will manage the effects of aging due to fatigue in accordance with 10 CFR 54.21(c)(1)(iii). The following provides additional information for specific Class 1 components. A.2.2.3 Effects of Reactor Water Environment on Fatigue Life NUREG/CR-6260 addresses the application of environmental correction factors to fatigue analyses (cumulative usage factors [CUFs]) and identifies locations of interest for consideration of environmental effects. NUREG/CR-6260 identified the following component locations to be the most sensitive to environmental effects for General Electric plants. (1) Reactor vessel shell and lower head (2) Reactor vessel feedwater nozzle (3) Reactor recirculation piping (including inlet and outlet nozzles) (4) Core spray line reactor vessel nozzles and associated Class 1 piping (5) Residual heat removal nozzles and associated Class 1 piping (6) Feedwater line Class 1 piping Environmentally assisted fatique (EAF) screening was performed for these NUREG/CR-6260 locations and the remaining ASME Class 1 reactor pressure vessel and piping locations for which fatigue had been assessed that are (1) wetted (in contact with liguid reactor coolant) and (2) form part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary. The components with the highest calculated CUF in each system were evaluated for the effects of EAF. The screening evaluation H used guidance in NUREG/CR-6909, as allowed by NUREG-1801, Revision 2. The fatigue curves in NUREG/CR-6909 were applied for all materials. The methodology discussed in EPRI 1024995, "Environmentally Assisted Fatigue Screening: Process and Technical Basis for Identifying EAF Limiting Locations" was used as guidance to determine which locations are bounding These locations are referred to as Sentinel locations. The Sentinel locations are to NRC-15-0068 Page 36 monitored to manage the effects of aging including EAF in the period of extended operation. Fermi 2 perforrned a scning evaluation of these six locations using the guidance provided in NUREG 1801, Revisien 2. This screening has determined there are locations that, when accounting for environmental effects, have projected usage factors greater than 1.0. Additional action will be needed, e.g. more detailed analysis or stress-based or cycle-based fatigue monitoring, as part of the Fatigue Monitoring Program (Section A.1.17) for these locations.

to NRC-15-0068 Page 41 B.1.43 WATER CHEMISTRY CONTROL - BWR Program Description The Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program manages loss of material, cracking, and fouling in components exposed to a treated water environment through periodic monitoring and control of water chemistry. The Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program monitors and controls water chemistry parameters such as pH, chloride, conductivity, and sulfate. EPRI Report 1016579 3002002623 is used to provide guidance The One-Time Inspection Program utilizes inspections or nondestructive evaluations of representative samples to verify that the Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program has been effective at managing aging effects. The representative sample includes low flow and stagnant areas. NUREG-1801 Consistency The Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program is consistent with the program described in NUREG-1801, Section XI.M2, Water Chemistry, with one exception. Exceptions to NUREG-1801 The Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program has the following exception. Element Affected Exception N/A (Program Description) NUREG-1801, Section XI.M2, Water Chemistry, references the guidelines in BWRVIP-190, EPRI 1016579 as the basis of the water chemistry program for boiling water reactors under Program Description. Fermi 2 has adopted Rev. 1 of BWRVIP-190, BWR Water Chemistry Guidelines, EPRI 3002002623.1 Exception Note

1. The BWR Water Chemistry Guidelines were updated in 2014 to provide an enhanced methodology for establishing site-specific BWR water chemistry control programs. The focus is on mitigating environmentally assisted cracking, maintaining fuel performance, controlling flow accelerated corrosion and controlling radiation fields. The guidelines were separated into two volumes - the first on implementation guidance and the second on the technical basis and background information. EPRI reports such as "BWR Water Chemistry Guidelines" are industry reports, which are reviewed and revised by industry experts to incorporate recent industry operating experience to NRC-15-0068 Page 42 and best practices. Adoption of the revised guidelines is required.

Through use of the updated BWR Water Chemistry Guidelines, which are based on operating experience with the goal to improve performance, the Fermi 2 Water Chemistry Control - BWR Program will better manage the effects of aging on materials exposed to the BWR treated water environment. Key non-editorial changes in the guidelines include the following: A new section on water chemistry guidance for fuel reliability was added. Guidance on monitoring and eliminating transient sources of ionic impurities in reactor water to minimize impacts on accelerated Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) and potential adverse effects on fuel was included. Guidance was refined for feedwater iron, feedwater copper and feedwater zinc action levels and needed values for fuel performance. Good practice recommendations for chemistry control in auxiliary systems, with emphasis on minimizing impurities that can potentially enter the reactor coolant were added. A new chapter on startup good practices and conditions to avoid based on operating experience was added. Recommendations were enhanced on shutdown good practices and conditions to avoid based on experience, including mid-cycle outages in addition to refueling outages. Tables on data monitoring and evaluation, including good practice sampling frequencies, were updated, and half-lives for activated corrosion products and fission products were included. The technical basis for water chemistry control in BWRs was consolidated and updated, including addition of information on zinc oxide and depleted zinc oxide. The bases for environmentally assisted fatigue of structural materials, low-alloy steel cracking, the effects of impurities on crack growth rates, stress corrosion cracking of carbon steel, and IGSCC mitigation methods were updated. Latest research results were added on controlling dissolved oxygen to minimize flow accelerated corrosion and the effects of noble metal chemistry and on-line noble metal chemistry. Water chemistry impacts on fuel integrity were updated with experience, including an additional table of chemistry trigger values for fuel risk assessment. Latest industry experience was used to update the chapter on water chemistry effects on radiation fields, including effects of moderate hydrogen water chemistry, noble metal chemistry addition, on-line noble chemistry, zinc iniection and operating with low iron. A section was added on good practices and conditions to avoid for the to NRC-15-0068 Page 43 design and operation of condensate polishing systems in order to optimize feedwater quality, with emphasis on minimizing the potential for impurities that may impact fuel performance. Sampling practices and monitoring techniques were updated, including background information, experience and good practices for electrochemical corrosion potential monitoring and on monitoring moisture carryover. The guidance on developing a BWR strategic water chemistry plan was updated. The tables of BWR transients have been updated and the latest results of higher conductivity crack growth rate studies have been incorporated. The correction in measured conductivity for presence of ionic species that are benign towards system integrity and to bound concentrations of potential ionic impurities that are not directly measured were updated. Improvements in selecting the power profile, gamma and fast neutron dose rates and chemical reaction rate constants and radiolysis G-values were added. A new appendix was added requiring all plants that inject hydrogen for IGSCC mitigation to have a mitigation performance indicator and providing good practices. Information on ultrasonic fuel cleaning was removed from this document and placed in a different EPRI guideline on fuel reliability. Another appendix was added on use of new technologies, such as methanol and titanium dioxide. Appendices were added for conversion to SI units. All changes were conservative, or provided additional information. Enhancements None}}
